3. Turn up the music

It’s not a party without music. Curate a playlist featuring the top singles from the decades the guest of honor grew up in. Or conversely, hire a tribute band that can play all of their favorite hits from their youth. If you want to go all-out and have live music (and you have the space for it), find talented and affordable musicians and bands on Gigsalad or The Bash.
Many Peerspace venues have A/V equipment, so hosting a live band won’t be an issue. Live entertainment is the perfect way to get everyone on their feet while honoring the birthday person’s superb musical taste!
